[QUOTE="Chris 8603, post: 129147, member: 23605"] Blue devil flush is the best I've seen for flush lately, but it won't cut that from the radiator good enough. Like someone else mentioned, that's electrolysis crystal if there ever has been. Check every ground and add some if needed. If your water pump is that noisy and not leaking, you probably have a bad impeller or those crystal built up around it. The only other thing that you might want to check is your hoses because it will eat those too if it is truly electrolysis, and head gaskets. Something else that could have happened is someone in the past used water that had a high mineral content that has caused a mineral buld up. I used to cringe watching someone dip creek water to add to a machine!!! When you get the radiator and system cleaned and well flushed, use distilled water to refill with, your supposed to anyway. Then use good ole ethylene glycol antifreeze back (aka the green stuff) and it would be a good idea since you've had issues to run wix cool additive or something similar. Not the hyer cool and super cool stiff. It helps keep deposit from sticking to metal surfaces and protect metal [/QUOTE]
